It's a warm one for today's #yarnfriendsrock promp

It's a warm one for today's #yarnfriendsrock prompt! I'm not one for sitting in the sun, thanks to my Celtic genes, but for the sake of Instagram, I powered through 😉 Here's my #alfresco picture of the sock I started last night. I might have sat up far too late to knit up just one more stripe 😴 The yarn is by King Cole and is the Kaleidoscope colourway in the Zig Zag range. The pattern is of course the Basic Sock by the lovely @winwickmum and I'm using an Addi Sock Wonder needle, which is now my new obsession 😍 Right, let's go pick up stitches! Happy Sunday everyone ☀️

Today's prompt for #yarnfriendsrock is Saturday sh

Today's prompt for #yarnfriendsrock is Saturday share and a couple of week ago, I shared the hats for my nieces, so it only seems fair to show the ones for my nephews now we are all done 😄 Both the boys have Barley hats and I love how the same yarn has patterned differently with a different size. The Barley pattern is super easy too and free on the Tin Can Knits website. It's been a busy day here with chores so I think it's time for a beer and I'm going to cast on a new sock as I've been itching to do that for ages! Cheers my lovelies 🍻🎉

Today's #yarnfriendsrock prompt is #cosycorner and

Today's #yarnfriendsrock prompt is #cosycorner and here's my side of the sofa 😜 As you can see, I have my knitting and stitching to hand, and there's crochet in the cupboard behind, so I don't have to move far 😂 I envy those with full-on craft rooms and that is my dream! Still, this just goes to show, you don't need that much space to make a lot of things! I do have another little nook at the other end of the sofa where I prefer to stitch as it's right by the window. I'll share that in my stories, so you can see. Right, it's Friday and that means it's time to finish the hat for my other nephew 🎉

Day 16 of #yarnfriendsrock is #shopindie and I tho

Day 16 of #yarnfriendsrock is #shopindie and I thought I'd share my favourite place for stitch markers 😍 Emma over at @atomicknitting has such a beautiful collection of different designs, plus a mystery marker club each month. She's also just released an advent calendar too, so be sure to go and check out her site! Here are a couple of recent mystery club deliveries 💜💙

Day 15 of #yarnfriendsrock is #colourinspiration and although I love my blues, blacks and greys if I'm making things for myself, I love the colours of a sunset. This one was taken in Mljet in Croatia and just look at those purples and pinks 💜 I think like most people, nature is a big factor in inspiring choices for me as she never gets it wrong 😍

Hi everyone! Today's #yarnfriendsrock prompt is #f

Hi everyone! Today's #yarnfriendsrock prompt is #flashyourstash and I'm just showing a bit of mine. The bit that can look tidy and instaworthy 😂 I'll share a but more in my stories, but my stash is quite unruly 😜 These are the entire set of Scheepjes Sugar Rush threads, which are my fave threads to crochet with because they are super smooth and look how many colours 😍 Let's also pretend that I don't have a duplicate of each colour stashed away 😉 I think that most of us love getting bits to add to our stash, especially after a busy or stressful week! Oh the perils of crafting 😂 Happy Sunday everyone! 💙💜💚

Day 11 of #yarnfriendsrock and the prompt is #expl

Day 11 of #yarnfriendsrock and the prompt is #explodedrainbow which made me think back to the fabulous Ubuntu blanket by the super talented @barbertondaisy 😍 I made a miniature version out of Scheepjes Sugar Rush threads, but followed Dedri's colour placements for this lovely, colourful piece. I'm sure most of you know that I do love my Sugar Rush threads and making miniature versions of things, but this one was fabulous fun 💙💚💜

The prompt for #yarnfriendsrock today is #favourit

The prompt for #yarnfriendsrock today is #favouritemake and as I've shared my all time favourite already, I'll share my current fave 😍 This is midway through part 3 of Karoo Vintage MAL by the lovely @hooksntales 💚 It's just stunning and I love working on it. It's not the easiest pattern, but there are videos to help you and the effort is so worth it. If you are wanting a challenge, you should look no further! I'm using vintage colours in Stylecraft Special DK for this.

Today's prompt for #yarnfriendsrock is Yarny Home

Today's prompt for #yarnfriendsrock is Yarny Home 🏡 As we live in a little flat, I don't have much space to keep projects out and tend to gift most of my finished objects. This piece, although not quite yarn, is something I made for some very dear friends and probably something I'll stitch again as I love the colours in it. I'm currently planning a rather large throw for our flat though, but I haven't quite decided on colours yet! I do love how I have a bursting cupboard full of yarn, thread and beads, but it's not something I'm sharing as it's definitely not organised 😂
